All modules except the very first ones are designed to be interfaced through a PCMCIA port.

That does however not mean that one can communicate with the Diablo or any other CAM using the laptop PCMCIA port. The port might be used to power the CAM while being programmed.

You need to do this in Windows ;-)

I tried my Diablo in the PCMCIA slot on a laptop. Using Win & Redhat. Tried every utility to read from and write to it that I could find. No Success. Went out and got a CAS 3 interface. Happy with it so far. It can act like a phoenix & smartmouse when connected via serial port - my guess is this is your best chance of getting it to work on a Linux PC - but I can't make any promises. CAS 3 software is Windows only. WINE doesn't help either.
